Blogotber Day 30- The Facts of Megan

I can't believe Blogtober 2014 is a day from being over. This is like a race that is so close to being done, and you can see the finish line, and you feel this surge of exhilaration and an "I made it!" attitude, while also feeling slightly saddened because it's done. At least, this is what I imagine people who run races feel like.

Anyhow, today we are talking about some facts about me:

-My middle name is Keely and I always get asked if its misspelled on documents and should be Kelly. As if I would misspell my own name on 14 documents back to back...

-I would not live in a cold climate. Snow, below zero, no thank you.

-I have not yet felt California sunshine or Colorado snow.

-But I have had gumbo in New Orleans and a cannoli in little Italy.

-My favorite movie of all time is Dirty Dancing.

-Glitter is my favorite color.

-I don't have a single bottle of perfume in my collection of beauty products.

-I live for picking out my new daily planner every 12-18 months. Like, a lot. I keep a countdown in the current one I use for when I get to pick a new one. I love making lists and outlining plans.

-Twitter is my favorite social media, with Instagram a close second.

-If I could only shop at one store the rest of my life it would be Macy's. Funny thing about this is I hardly go there now, yet I know they would be my choice if told I could only have one place. They have everything!

-I am more controlling than I ever realized. This is what I like to call an area of opportunity.

-Halloween is my favorite holiday out of any other one and I'm excited to come back tomorrow to share my Halloween costume!

Just some simple facts of me. Nice to meet you if you're newly reading, good to see you if you're visiting again.

Until we meet again,

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w...

Reset on a Weekend

One of my favorite things in the world is laying in bed on a weekend night watching Netflix movies while my Hunter and my Ro nap next to me and I scroll Instagram home design and wellness accounts as well. This is particularly enjoyable after an extra long week, I might add. I feel calm and giddy alike throughout this downtime. I am able to relax and unwind, often taking mindfulness breaks and enjoying a komboocha or lemon water simultaneously. It couldn’t be any more basic. This recharge makes me naturally happy creating reflection and gratefulness for everything in my life. I’m a hard worker with determination and I like to reach goals and make new ones so I feel like I’m on more than I’m not. I need to reset like this because it reiterates what it’s about most at the end of the day; health, happiness, and an attitude of gratitude. What is your approach to bring it all back to center? ...

Simple blessings

I’m lying in bed, next to a snoring husband and my baby girl dogter sprawled out cozy as can be, while the rain falls down upon our roof. Gone are the days of spending a Saturday night downtown at a club, throwing beers back in a honky think, or galavanting around to anywhere with the lights on. And I’m not mad about it. Not even a little bit. There is tilt no place I’d rather be than with hunter, Roni and our comfy sweet little home happily netflixing and writing this here post. It’s a good feeling indeed. I count my blessings extra on nights like this and say a few additional prayers for love and comfort to continue on. I truly don’t ask for more than health, happiness, and love. Anything else is gravy. To simple blessings for all.
